Abbey Lincoln - Memorial Service


Just recorded Franz Schubert's "Ave Maria" in my studio with bassist Reggie Carson for Abbey Lincoln's memorial service, being held on October 1st in New York City. Reggie performed a 3 bass accompaniment for chanteuse Ms. Evelyn Mason (Abbey's niece) who will be performing it at the memorial.

Hi Terry! I just read your blog. I am a friend of Abbey's and I just arrived in New York yesterday, for the memorial. I am looking forward to the many ways in which Abbey will be honored/remembered. I am looking forward to hearing Evelyn's rendition of "Ave Maria." Are you here in NYC? I am a jazz vocalist, looking for some good jam sessions!!! Are you performing in NYC this week or next?

Hi DeAnna. Thank you for your note. I live in Los Angeles and will not be in New York for Abbey's memorial, but will be there in spirit.
Best, Terry
